It is tech news, but I get you. It's hard to find a place with news about actual technological innovations, advances, updates etc rather than the machinations of the corporations involved. I completely understand the relevance, but it's often not the sort of genuinely interesting read you're looking for.

Having him deliver the "I've been here the whole time" would be incredible haha

Well, here you have a company that fires their CEO for going too much in the direction of earning money.

Yeah, honestly, that's music to my ears. Imagine a world where organizations weren't in the business of pursuing capital at any cost.

this is someone manually doing it themselves as a joke to simulate the leaderboard on your myspace page.

yeah haha, the comments on most posts seem relatively positive to me? ironically, this is by far the most negative comment section I think I've ever seen here

yeah, I use my start button all the time to quickly open stuff. Hit start, start typing the program name, hit enter because it shows up immediately as a suggestion. super quick with no need to touch the mouse

How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?

I just use both now, honestly. I don't really use the big subreddits because the users and quality of conversation feel like they're actively making me dumber... but there are smaller niche communities that don't really have a viable non-reddit alternative yet, and I'm not willing to let one greedy man force me to give up on a part of my life that I really enjoy.

ARTICLE LINK

(just because I sometimes miss them when the post has a text body)

So, I kept seeing the option to list a "Matrix" username in my lemmy profile across various instances, but I had no idea what Matrix actually was. This is from last December so it's not hot off the press, but it was a good read and I wanted to share it in hopes it might help add some context for anyone else like me wondering what it's all about!

 

Interesting article. Honestly, it's fascinating seeing these major industry players having to answer questions outside of the realm of their usual short PR bits

 

That was always one of the things I preferred about old.reddit to the re-design, but I'm not sure where or if I can have lemmy look like that, instead of having everything squeezed in the middle

i'm hoping it's just a setting i'm missing somewhere?
